hodzy Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 put it in utube! will show you how to! far easier than explaining it! Quote
studley Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 you could try a heli set up mate. if fishing zig into weed make sure the lead can drop off as it makes it alot easier and safer to fish. but type in zig on google or the search on here how to set them up mate. Quote
hodzy Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Carnt give you any tips on linear! But if you type it in the search I'm sure thell b a shed load of info on the place! Good luck! Hope u bag a BIGGIE Quote
chaz1839 Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 like all other have mentioned, search u tube bud. only advice to give mate is when selecting the the depth you want to fish at, start with the longest, then work shorter. you can always take some off but you cant add it. sounds obvious i know but you have to find what level the fish are at. fishing linear myself at the end of the month also. see you on the bank good luck.

How long would you reccomend leaving a rod out with a 5ft zig before reducing it??? common sense would say it varys if you no there are fish in the swim??? but in general? Quote
arl Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 May be a couple of hours ,Then come up a foot. Quote
fraserking Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 May be a couple of hours ,Then come up a foot. ...or down a foot depending on the depth! Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 This any use? https://forum.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=34983 Quote
chaz1839 Posted July 12, 2011 Report Posted July 12, 2011 If there is fish showing leave it out longer than if there is no motion in the swim, to keep the disturbance down to a minimum. I have heard a lot of people are catching a lot of fish with just using a trimmed down bit of black foam on the hair when zig fishing. give it a try mate with a sloppy spod mix over the top to cloud up the swim bud. good luck.
